Next year is when we are going to have a good amount of veterans on our 3rd team. Also, I can bring up quite a few games back in the day where our 3rd team was scored on. Also, if you have a lot of freshmen on your 2nd and 3rd team, they are going to get scored on. You see what happened last year when we had so much youth whom are basically older and no the playbook this year.</p>Sal commented on 'VIDEO: Golden, D'Onofrio, Canes players react to win over Georgia Tech'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2019affd17c0f970c2013-10-07T02:05:14Z2013-10-07T02:05:14ZSalCanes fan: Why do we give up cheap TD's at the end of a game Great point.

If anyone knows that history of Shalala, no one will be making that statement. For anyone to say that he was brought here to graduate our football players sounds ridiculous because what does that has to do with what he was supposed to do on the field during practices and games. His responsibility was to develop our players physically, conditionally and mentally which is where he completely failed at in a big way. Let&#39;s just say I talked to players from Miami Northwestern who played for him and players from other other schools and players whom decided to go elsewhere. Lastly, Shannon&#39;s biggest issue was hiring mostly high school coaches as assistants because they were not qualified for developing college players. That&#39;s why all of them are right back coaching high school ball. Now, I do believe Shannon was going to fire those guys right after his last season, but it was too late so stop saying that he wasn&#39;t given a fair chance especially after Shalala wrongfully gave him an extension. </p>Norman commented on 'VIDEO: Golden, D'Onofrio, Canes players react to win over Georgia Tech'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2019affd05692970c2013-10-06T20:40:40Z2013-10-06T20:40:40ZNormanYou are welcome Ron Zook.

Coaches should get some of the credit if the players are doing what was taught the coaches. Do you know that Tracy Howard stated that he had to adjust to what was being taught by our coaches and when he started doing it, it benefited him in a big way. Do you give Shannon credit for the way our d played when he was the d coordinator? Yes. </p>Norman commented on 'VIDEO: Golden, D'Onofrio, Canes players react to win over Georgia Tech'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2019affd0cb13970d2013-10-06T20:34:28Z2013-10-06T20:34:28ZNormanI agree.

He puts the ball where our receivers can run after the catch on a consistent basis. As far as FSU goes, some of y&#39;all need to relax. They have faced any team with a good d line or secondary as of yet. Clemson has a good d line, but their secondary isn&#39;t really good so that game is going to be interesting because FSU&#39;s secondary is suspect as well along with their d line.</p>Calvin commented on 'VIDEO: Golden, D'Onofrio, Canes players react to win over Georgia Tech'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2019affd0b594970d2013-10-06T20:10:24Z2013-10-06T20:10:24ZCalvin“We were looking for the right opportunity to get into our three-down package,” D’Onofrio said. “That was unbelievably executed by...<p>“We were looking for the right opportunity to get into our three-down package,” D’Onofrio said. “That was unbelievably executed by our guys.

I was at the game and I told everyone in the stand that GT is doing some stuff that they haven&#39;t done in their 1st four games which is something you can&#39;t prepare for. The reason we couldn&#39;t make the adjustments soon enough is because our defense wasn&#39;t on the sideline long enough in order to learn about what need to be adjusted. That time came after we scored our 1st td during the long drive during the 2nd quarter. Plus, another thing to factor in is that Coach D is up in the booth which means he has to wait until halftime in order for him to show our d on the board what&#39;s going on. If everyone watch more than 2 of GT games, you would have known from the jump that they brought something new to the table. The great thing is...we eventually somewhat adjusted during the middle of the second and completely adjusted during the half. It had nothing to do with playing so many cupcakes.</p>Ron Zook commented on 'VIDEO: Golden, D'Onofrio, Canes players react to win over Georgia Tech'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2019affd021e0970c2013-10-06T19:44:44Z2013-10-06T19:44:44ZRon Zook http://miamiherald.typepad.com/umiami/2013/06/canes-land-commitment-from-little-known-booker-t-washington-defensive-end-with-plenty-of-athleticism/comments/page/3/#commentsThis is how you run the offense! http://youtu.be/sd3X3aFa7aM Posted by: Calvin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ So!

When Mark got to halftime and drew them up, the guys came out with a vengeance. Mark made a shift up front. They took away [Tech’s rushing offense]. If you said we would have [four] turnovers and win the game, I’d say I have some sand to sell you. It says a lot about our team and the way we’re playing.”<br />
<br />
After allowing 150 yards rushing in the first quarter, UM only relinquished 185 the rest of the day. And UM held Georgia Tech quarterbacks to 66 yards through the air, on dismal 6 for 19 accuracy.</p>
<p>Besides each of their picks, Gunter also made a terrific play on a third quarter run, forcing a five-yard loss, and Jenkins deflected a pass earlier in the half.</p>
<p>And there were a bunch of other key defensive plays in the second half: Anthony Chickillo snuffed out a run for no gain or a third and three, then added another tackle for loss on Tech’s next series… Shayon Green had a sack, the second of his career and second in two weeks…. And Tyriq McCord had a sack (and forced a fumble that Tech recovered) before Gunter’s late pick-six.</p>
<p>Defensive coordinator Mark D’Onofrio made great calls on two key Georgia Tech plays with UM leading 31-23 and just over five minutes left. On the first, he blitzed Denzel Perryman and Tracy Howard, forcing an incompletion on a third and seven from the UM 38. On the next, he went to a 3-4 defense after using a 4-3 most of the day, and Jenkins got the interception. </p>
<p>“We were looking for the right opportunity to get into our three-down package,” D’Onofrio said. “That was unbelievably executed by our guys. Jenkins got the pick and that was exactly what he was coached to do.”</p>
<p>D’Onofrio said Tech, early on “gave us something we haven’t seen in a couple years we played them, something they hadn&#39;t shown previously. So we had to scramble there a little bit. We were able to settle the guys down. I was able to draw up stuff on the board, get [them] lined up correctly. We were able to do a really good job in the third and fourth quarters. </p>
<p>D’Onofrio said “It was important we could [rotate] four inside guys. We didn’t want to get tired. Kelvin Cain was our second-team Mike linebacker because he played against this [before]. Nantambu Fentress [played]... It takes everyone executing their role. Fortunately, we have a lot of flexibility right now.”</p>Ron Zook commented on 'VIDEO: Golden, D'Onofrio, Canes players react to win over Georgia Tech'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2019affcff60f970c2013-10-06T18:56:40Z2013-10-06T18:56:40ZRon Zook http://miamiherald.typepad.com/umiami/2013/06/canes-land-commitment-from-little-known-booker-t-washington-defensive-end-with-plenty-of-athleticism/comments/page/3/#commentsMorris had his fifth career 300-yard passing game and has thrown at least one touchdown in 10 games in a...<p>Morris had his fifth career 300-yard passing game and has thrown at least one touchdown in 10 games in a row.</p>Calvin commented on 'VIDEO: Golden, D'Onofrio, Canes players react to win over Georgia Tech'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2019affcfe3f2970b2013-10-06T18:52:24Z2013-10-06T18:52:24ZCalvinThe last thing we need is for DunnoToday, DunnoTommorrow, JustPlainDunno and FSU will show everybody that IDunno to read some...<p>The last thing we need is for DunnoToday, DunnoTommorrow, JustPlainDunno and FSU will show everybody that IDunno to read some stupid defensive advice like that.</p>

<p> Still one of the all time great sayings. The booth has saved him though. Come this year against Fsu or any other team, no excuses for sure. I like that we have widereceivers that can go up agaisnt anybody. Our o-line actually played better without seantrel who i have no problem with myself and to those who keep saying that man is a bust, let that be a lesson to you about these recruiting sites and all these nerds ranking and trying to rank highschool players. I said it before he got here, he wasn&#39;t that good and plus he&#39;s from minnesota, somebody tried to counter me by saying steve walsh was from there also, but i told them, seantrel is a real solid talent, but when he chose usc i never wanted him to transfer here or pick us either before he chose usc only because i like the old days where none of these nerd websites can try and take credit if we win a national championship under coach goldie, by saying after the fact, &quot;well Miami had some of the highest rated recruiting classes over the last so &amp; so years, you knew this was coming&quot;.</p>
<p> We&#39;ll see how things go, whoever those bozo announcers were yesterday, had to be some of the most irritating i&#39;ve heard i years.

As evidenced by his 2 picks. Him yelling at clive was comical, what did he want clive to do, fly, no way was clive going to be able to catch that ball, you need real touch in order to complete those tye of passes, something smo hasn&#39;t come close to doing, he&#39;s the laser meister.</p>
<p> When it comes to this defense though, we&#39;ll see how this defense does against a traditional offense is what i&#39;m waiting to see myself. We haven&#39;t faced one yet, well the gaytors offense tried but we&#39;ll see what happens going forward. I think this defense will be alot more solid when it faces traditional offenses, but we&#39;ll see, thus far the teams we&#39;ve played haven&#39;t prepared us to good except going up against a physical running team like Georgia tech. The funny thing is, Virginia tech continues to use our blue print for defense, see their d-tackles, so that&#39;s the main reason they held Georgia tech to 129 rushing like we use to do.<br />
<br />
You would&#39;ve thought we&#39;d have played better defense yesterday to start the game going into year 3 against an option team. We definitely got talent on defense, i like what i see from rayshawn jenkins as a True sophmore though. From a secondary standpoint, we should only get stronger, especially if deon bush regains his spot back, the way he flew down on special teams yesterday, he&#39;s definitely starting to get his speed back. Which will be right on time as the days of playing the cupcakes are over with.<br />

From what I saw the guys as Michael Irvin said in the U documentary, ventured into the land of overconfident which can get them beat. We made the necessary adjustments to win the game. I would like to see against these lesser opponents to go out and crush their confidence right from the start. I am just concerned that from a mental standpoint that our players think they are better than what they really are and not take teams serious. Personally I am just glad that the Ga Tech game is over and we have an off week to get healthy and get Morris rested and healed up.</p>Ron Zook commented on 'VIDEO: Golden, D'Onofrio, Canes players react to win over Georgia Tech'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2019affcf971d970b2013-10-06T17:25:24Z2013-10-06T17:25:24ZRon Zookhttp://miamiherald.typepad.com/umiami/2013/06/canes-land-commitment-from-little-known-booker-t-washington-defensive-end-with-plenty-of-athleticism/comments/page/3/#commentsIt never looks good or is a good sign when an option team comes out passing the ball on you...<p>It never looks good or is a good sign when an option team comes out passing the ball on you knowing full well your db&#39;s are sprinting back, it was actually comical to me to see an option team opening up with the pass like they did.</p>
<p>Either way, we won though and i&#39;m glad the soft games are over now guys will have to bring their physical games every week. It&#39;s going to be real interesting when we play Fsu, i&#39;m curious to see how our/this pass defense concept affects winston or will he torch us, always good to see our defense getting/forcing turn-overs too.</p>
<p>smo17, good ankle or bad ankle, i&#39;l say it again, he can&#39;t throw over the middle of the field consistently because he doesn&#39;t pick up the linebackers well and as far as the tight-ends go, smo17 doesn&#39;t have the touch to get them the ball in the middle of the field between the linebacker and safety, that&#39;s been a weakness of his since he&#39;s gotten here, this is why our tight-ends have only been productive mainly with the flat routes. ryan williams actually sees the field better than smo17 in that regard and is more accurate as well.</p>

Well, well, well, Calvie is at it again...first of all the fact that Georgia Tech opened with a pass is they believed our corners and safeties were going to be aggressively moving towards the line of scrimmage, not sprinting backwards as you absurdly claim...first lie refuted!</p>
<p>Next, you claim the soft games are over, which you conveniently gloss over the Canes win over the 10th ranked team in the nation at the time and that fantastic win...second lie refuted! </p>
<p>Then you take your cheap shots at Stephen Morris (you are running out of things to lie about) who yesterday bravely played with what everyone knows now to be a serious ankle injury. That injury is preventing Stephen from using his normal throwing motion and is mostly forced to use all arm, which based on most all of his fantastic throws yesterday highlights the extraordinary talent of our starting QB. To say Stephen doesn&#39;t have the touch to throw to his tight ends over the middle and that is why the TE production is off is laughable and daylights someone who has no worldly clue as to the offensive schemes run by the Canes...Third and a few more lies refuted.</p>

<p>1) FSU QB. The complete package. He is a leader and still a kid. He&#39;s having fun, team is stacked, we haven&#39;t seen the best of this kid yet.</p>
<p>2) Manziel: If U saw Manziel last year, this year is a continuation. He&#39;ll run less in the NFL, but still be good.</p>
<p>3) Former RS standout NW recruit Bridgewater; he might be the best overall individual player in college football right now. But U of Louisville doesn&#39;t play anybody, so Teddy is up against himself every week. If he keeps knocking people out, he&#39;ll set some more records, but UL is the second coming of Boise State. Strong had the chance to schedule at least two competitive teams, but....</p>
<p>Note: Boyd from Clemson won&#39;t win Heisman, because if there ever was a &quot;system&quot; QB, Boyd is it. This is Dabo Sweeney&#39;s &quot;system&quot; that U see every week. Why do U thing Ellington got drafted in 6th round last year. Take Boyd out and insert anybody else and that person succeeds because of Sweeney&#39;s &quot;get it up the field&quot; fast offense. Why do U think Clemson is so up and down? That&#39;s because the &quot;system&quot; fails every now and then and Boyd is rendered incapable of doing anything outside of the &quot;system.&quot; Boyd is good, but won&#39;t play QB in the NFL. And what position does Watkins really play? Is he a WR in the NFL? No. He is a backup RB in the NFL or a PR or KR. A Percy Harvin kind of player.</p>

Our run D has made LEAPS from last year. Credit booth-bound D&#39;no for actually making adjustments in the second half that our guys actually executed! That front improvement has made the turnover margin for us on the passing game possible. Both ints yesterday came due to opposition panic mode AND getting to the passer with the line. No denying that. </p>
<p>Agreed that the garbage time tds we&#39;ve given up lately are infuriating.</p>
<p>Totally disagree that this coaching staff and players will get weaker as the season goes on. I don&#39;t think we have a 4 quarter chance against yesterday&#39;s FSU - credit to them, and VT is not going to be easy at all. </p>
<p>The rest of the schedule is one where not single game is a gimmee - even against DUKE - BUT!, each is winnable. I see our defense getting better as the season goes on, unlike last year; especially as so many have pointed out - that we sucked against DUKE. </p>
<p>Regarding the TOP on offense? I don&#39;t mind the quick strikes at the beginning of the game. We have tended to be better at TOP mgmnt in the second half, given that opposing defenses of merit force it upon us. </p>
<p>We can&#39;t even overlook UNC, but I like the methodical approach this team seems to be buying into. I will take it all season, even if we lose to both FSU and VT. If we lose to UNC, WF, DUKE, UVA, or Pitt because we believe too much in the hype stink - woosh, bad juju on coaches. I just don&#39;t see us falling prey to the hype machine THIS year...fingers crossed. </p>
<p>I was really worried about how we&#39;d handle GT this year; it looked like we wanted to give it to them early - heck, till almost too late. This year&#39;s second real win was most attributable to our defense - again. No denying that. </p>Bob commented on 'VIDEO: Golden, D'Onofrio, Canes players react to win over Georgia Tech'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2019affd00824970d2013-10-06T16:53:19Z2013-10-06T16:53:19ZBobhttp://bobmcnesby.comOne of the best things about the Canes this year is they are resembling the Canes of old regarding their...<p>One of the best things about the Canes this year is they are resembling the Canes of old regarding their toughness.

<p>I agree with both of you about coming out flat. But it is normal every good team goes through it especially against teams they know they&#39;re better than. I&#39;m not happy about it but it&#39;s reality. Alabama had a rough game against Colorado a few weeks ago. You&#39;re right though we cant come out like that against Florida State. However, it&#39;s a rivalry game and Miami will have a lot to prove so I don&#39;t really see them coming out flat. It&#39;s hard to when you have so much adrenaline for those big games. I think these extra days off will help Morris feel better and we will be in a good position to challenge FSU when we are at our peak. I look forward to it but let&#39;s take care of business vs. North Carolina and Wake Forest first. 1 game at a time.

SM is a pocket passer and has to be coached better on short screens. I don&#39;t trust him running under no circumstances. Why Hagans isn&#39;t getting the ball more is anybody&#39;s guess. Same thing with Walford. Crawford MUST be used as a decoy and as more of an offensive weapon. Crawford is a decent QB, too.</p>
<p>This D is more suited to the passing game. It seems like they are always in &quot;spread&quot; mode. I saw no swarming, nothing up front against GT. The loss of Johnson and Paul is evident. The LB&#39;s are better than good, but too much pressure is on them and secondary due to weak DL. </p>
<p>The run stop D does not exist. The good teams will run crazy on this D. Strangely, UM has good players on D. Jenkins is OK. Chick seems to disappear for three quarters. The DL is weak, but I like Shayon.</p>

<p> When you&#39;ve played the majority of of cupcakes on your schedule this will tend to happen to you. But also, it&#39;s a by product of coach donofrio and coach goldie&#39;s sit back, wait and see approach to defense, nothing new. This defensive scheme is designed to sit back, wait and see how the offense is trying to attack you and than adjusting from their. Whereas in our normal 4-3 scheme, where offenses had to adjust to what our defenses did, it&#39;s the other way around now and has been since goldie and his minions have gotten here.</p>
<p> It&#39;s an approach that an definitely get you behind in a game, whereas in the old 4-3 schemes, no matter what formation they came with, that diamond formation would&#39;ve gotten blown up from the get-go.<br />

<p>Forgot to call out Hagens! That guy is awesome; so glad to see him produce on his limited touches. His blocking is great. I hope he gets picked up by a nfl team for the detail work he does. Dallas Crawford has been a great bright spot too. Really glad to see him get his opportunity to shine this year.</p>
<p>This Oline isn&#39;t as good as the 01-02 unit, but with Kehoe and recruiting, we are focusing on that crucial aspect. So great to have quiet confidence when watching as a fan that the protection as well as the blocking schemes are so...taken for granted.</p>

Good to see you guys on here.</p>
<p>I agree .</p>
<p>Good observation.</p>
<p>My take is that CG has these guys at a certain level, and he does not want them too hyped to start and not be able to maintain, throughout the game.<br />
He is a kind of &quot;Steady as you go&quot; and total focus kind of mind set.</p>
<p>I liken this to two boxers. One comes out and is all pumped for the first 3 rounds. Starts to fade and gets knocked out in the 5 th. <br />
The other guy is jabbing and moving, total focus, and planning way ahead as he paces himself. That is the temperament in our &#39;13 &#39;Canes.</p>
<p>The old teams were wild and crazy, and could switch it on and off . That threw all their opponents off, and made them successful!!!. The opponents were worried as to who would show up. The fatigues, or the Swag Strutters. <br />
I loved it, but this is a more measured, and working the process type of &#39;Canes.<br />
CG has them in a good place.<br />

At South Florida, we came out kinda flat and really didn&#39;t seem to wake up until the bulls scored that first TD, then it was like things became real to them and they realized they were going to have to play. Then yesterday they went through the motions to start with and before they knew it an interception, a fumble later we were in trouble down 17-7 only to get a fumble to stop GT&#39;s momentum. Then we started to play somewhat like we know how to. I know this, we better not come out like this against FSU or we will end up like Maryland did. And we can&#39;t afford to do this against other teams or else we could be upset.
